Calpurnia is more than a housekeeper and cook. She is part of the family. She is a teacher to Scout and Jem. She is a caring but strict dictator. Calpurnia treats Scout and Jem as she would her own children.
Calpurnia is a mother figure to Scout and Jem. She does more then she has to do every day (which is just cooking and cleaning). She protects them and cares for them like they are family.
